Is parental involvement expected? If so to what degree?
Online tutoring services are much welcome by most parents since a lot of their ancillary worries are taken care of. The frustration of looking for the right tutor who is familiar with the syllabus, the trouble of arranging tuition hours and making transport arrangements, and being constantly worried about the safety of their children, are all done away with. Knowing that your children can get tutored in the comfort and security of your home is definitely a welcoming thought for parents. However we do expect some degree of parent participation. Parents are expected to provide a distraction-free environment for their children. Also, parents must at all times be aware of their children’s schedule, and ensure that they log on to the online class at the scheduled time.
